Larian Studios announced on Steam that a stress test for Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 is planned for January. PC players can participate via Steam, while console players on Xbox and PlayStation will also have access. Mac and GOG users are excluded from this test. Registration for the stress test is now open.

Larian aims to thoroughly test Patch 8 for bugs and gameplay issues before its official release. They're particularly keen on player feedback regarding crossplay functionality, a significant undertaking for a game of Baldur's Gate 3's scale. The developer encourages players to register and test crossplay, suggesting the use of the provided registration link to invite friends or joining the Larian Studios Discord Server to find groups.

Although Patch 8 marks the final major update, Larian reaffirmed their commitment to supporting the game's modding community. Substantial updates are planned to enhance modding capabilities, allowing players more creative freedom in shaping their gameplay experiences. Since the September release of official mod tools, an impressive 70 million modules have been downloaded, and over 3,000 mods have been uploaded.
